The role of point of care ultrasound in radiology department: update and prospective. A statement of Italian college ultrasound.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Ultrasound, in its new point-of-care conception, has been called the stethoscope of the future. Goal-directed bedside ultrasound examination, performed by a healthcare provider to answer a specific diagnostic question or guide an invasive procedure, is currently revolutionizing medical practice. It is used by various specialties in multiple clinical contexts for procedural, diagnostic, and screening applications. Point-of-care ultrasound is also a strategic technique in clinical radiology; it brings the radiologist closer to the patient (in interaction and understanding) like interventional and angiography procedures and, as an integrative imaging modality, is a vital radiological tool for decision-making in many situations. In this commentary, we present our observations on the use of ultrasound, in a sincere appeal to refrain from omitting ultrasound as a diagnostic technique in this era of deep professional change, in which radiologists must return to being a true clinical semiologist.
